Double Agent Saga

The traffic in Cambodia is extremely backward.Pan Qiwu judged that after Zuo Shaoqing crossed the border and entered Cambodia via Da Lat Mountain, she had only one way to go, which was to take a train from Phnom Penh to Bangkok, Thailand.

Cambodia has only one railway, which was built with the help of the French in [-].From Phnom Penh to Poipet, a border city between Cambodia and Thailand via Kampong Chhnang, Matwang, and Sisophon, and then enter Thailand to reach Bangkok.

But for Zuo Shaoqing to arrive in Phnom Penh from the Cambodia-Vietnam border, it was a long journey with almost no means of transportation.She may only be able to walk, with little or no chance of hitchhiking.

Pan Qiwu understood this point on the plane, and felt that he was more confident in completing the mission of this trip and had plenty of time.Now, he puts his focus on Phnom Penh, especially around the Phnom Penh Railway Station.He believed that Zuo Shaoqing would definitely appear at the Phnom Penh train station.

At twelve o'clock at night, Pan Qiwu and his entourage got off the plane at the dilapidated Pochentong Airport, west of Phnom Penh.The person who came to pick him up was Jiang Shanyan, the leader of the Cambodian Division of the Intelligence Bureau.He did not go to the hotel arranged for him by Jiang Shanyan, but went directly to Phnom Penh Railway Station. [

Together with Jiang Shanyan, he repeatedly inspected the environment around the train station.Although it was in the dark night and the surrounding dilapidated houses and narrow alleys formed an extremely complex terrain, Pan Qiwu still saw that this place could form a watertight net.

He took out a photo of Zuo Shaoqing and handed it to Jiang Shanyan, staring at him with piercing eyes and said: "Group leader Jiang, you must not let this person leave Phnom Penh, this is a death order!"

It was near evening in the afternoon of the next day, Pan Qiwu had just set up a net at the Phnom Penh Railway Station, and Zuo Shaoqing arrived in Phnom Penh exhausted.Her first destination was Phnom Penh Railway Station.

Two days later, Du Ziyuan, Qin Donghai and others also traced to Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia.However, it was too late.

The four words "by chance", sometimes, you really agree with it.

In fact, Pan Qiwu, who was mature and prudent and only wanted to win back the trust in front of Ye Gongjin, still underestimated Zuo Shaoqing.

He believes that although the Cambodia-Vietnam border is not far from Phnom Penh, the transportation is inconvenient.From the border, walk or hitchhike, plus dodge police and military.Therefore, Zuo Shaoqing must arrive in Phnom Penh after he has set up the net.

But how could Zuo Shaoqing's wisdom and ability be compared to Pan Qiwu's generation.Coupled with a stack of two hundred dollars in her backpack, she easily rented a truck and went straight to Phnom Penh.

However, in the dark, God unexpectedly helped Pan Qiwu a favor, causing Zuo Shaoqing to delay for two days, and unknowingly stepped into the snare that Pan Qiwu specially set up for her.

The problem was that when Zuo Shaoqing had rented a truck and was about to go on the road, all the roads and paths on the Cambodia-Vietnam border were suddenly blocked by the army and police, and no vehicles were allowed to pass.Therefore, the time when Zuo Shaoqing finally set out on the road was delayed by two full days.

The army and police blocked the border road in order to hunt down a man named Ta Chun.This is a small thing, but it is a big thing for every Cambodian.This matter must start with an unsolved case that has been entangled for more than 400 years in the history of Cambodia and Vietnam.

From the perspective of Cambodia, the Mekong Delta and the south of Vietnam, including Saigon City (today's Ho Chi Minh City), known as the Paris of the East, were once the territory of Cambodia.Around the [-]th century, the Vietnamese king at that time married his sixth princess to King Chezhet of the Kingdom of Cambodia.The sixth princess is married, but her heart is still at her mother's house.She actually took advantage of the favor of her newlyweds to ask King Ji Zhede for a large area of ​​land in the Mekong River and the area south of it, and gave it to her father.It is really unreasonable for such a daughter-in-law not to take off her pants and spank her ass.Later, this sad territory was called "Lower Cambodia" by the Cambodians, and it has been disputed between the two countries for hundreds of years.Later, it was the French colonists who made a decision for them, assigning "Lower Cambodia" to Vietnam.And this land is called "osoxne", which means "the land begged by the six princesses".This is a heart disease that Cambodians can't let go of.

From the perspective of Vietnam, the ambitions of the Vietnamese cannot be satisfied by a mere delta.From [-], France began to colonize the Indochina Peninsula. By [-], Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia were formed into a "French Federation of Indochina."This "federation" gave the Vietnamese great room for imagination.In February [-], Ho Chi Minh presided over the establishment of the "Communist Party of Indochina" (listen to the name) in Hong Kong, and also set up branches in Laos and Cambodia under this party.Ho Chi Minh also passed a resolution at the inaugural meeting, preparing for the establishment of the "Socialist Federation of Indochina" by these three countries after the successful revolution in the future.The Vietnamese have never given up on this idea.In [-], after the reunification of the north and the south of Vietnam, the Vietnamese army first took control of Laos, which was then Laos.In [-], they launched a full-scale military invasion of Cambodia, again for their "Indochina Federation".Although this military invasion ultimately failed, the Vietnamese still did not give up on this dream.

This is the historical background before and after Zuo Shaoqing escaped from Vietnam in [-].

Prior to this, the [-] general election in Cambodia.In order to maintain his ruling position in Cambodia, King Sihanouk took control of the parliament, announced that he would give up the throne and become a prince instead.Since then, he has been called Prince Sihanouk.He also formed the "People's Social Union" as his main force in the parliamentary elections.In order to strengthen his momentum, he drew all the more famous people in the society into the "alliance".Among these people are Lon Nol (the person who launched the military coup in [-] and overthrew Prince Sihanouk), Tachun (this person was once the main leader of the famous anti-French armed forces "Issara"), Song Shuang (he later became an important adviser to Sihanouk and became the prime minister of the coalition government of Democratic Kampuchea in [-]), Shen Hua (he founded the first Khmer newspaper in Cambodian history).In this year's general election, the "People's Social Alliance" led by Prince Sihanouk won a big victory.

At this time in April [-], it was the above-mentioned Tha Xuan who, out of unknown motives, secretly went to the Republic of South Vietnam to secretly negotiate with President Ngo Dinh Diem, planning to overthrow the Sihanouk government and establish a pro-South Vietnam government. , a pro-American government, and at the same time secretly discussing the establishment of the "Indochina Federation".When Sihanouk got the news, he couldn't help being furious, and ordered the army and police to block the Cambodia-Vietnam border and hunt down Tachun.

What is surprising is that although this Ta Chun has pulled the team and engaged in armed struggle, he is an incurable "addict".When he abandoned his car and fled for his life in the mountains and forests, he suffered from drug addiction, fell to the ground, and was shot to death by soldiers chasing him.

It was because of this incident that Zuo Shaoqing delayed his journey for two days.When she finally arrived at the Phnom Penh train station, Pan Qiwu had already laid a net at the train station.

This is very frustrating, maybe Zuo Shaoqing should have such a calamity in his life.This catastrophe also made Du Ziyuan and Zuo Shaoqing, who had been lovers for nearly 20 years, miss each other even though they were close at hand. [

As mentioned earlier, Du Ziyuan and Qin Donghai arrived in Phnom Penh two days later.But when they arrived, Zuo Shaoqing had already been imprisoned in the state prison south of Phnom Penh.The fact that she was imprisoned will be described slowly below.

Let's talk about Du Ziyuan first.

At the meeting in the meeting room on the top floor of the Liuguo Hotel, the two vice ministers of the Central Investigation Department explained the situation in person and gave a serious account of the task, which doubled the pressure on Du Ziyuan and made him extremely anxious.An assassination case in Cam Ranh Bay, South Vietnam, had such a close relationship with China's ability to obtain the technology to manufacture atomic weapons, which he never imagined.

When he asked Qin Donghai to prepare, he immediately contacted the air force through his relationship.He learned that the air force had a transport plane that was about to fly to Nanning.However, the plane was loaded with secret materials, and the Air Force did not allow Du Ziyuan to take the plane.In the end, the "authorization" issued by the Central Office played a role, and the Air Force reluctantly allowed them to board the plane.

Du Ziyuan and Qin Donghai made emergency preparations. With a Vietnamese translator, a beautiful Long Jinyun, the chairman of the student union and secretary of the party branch who just graduated from Peking University last year, hurried on the plane.

Five hours later, the plane landed at Nanning Military Airport.Two comrades from the Guangxi Investigation Bureau were already waiting for them at the airport.Without any delay, Du Ziyuan immediately got into the car that picked them up and went to the Investigation Bureau in a secluded street behind the Guangxi Autonomous Region Government.

In the small conference room of the Guangxi Bureau of Investigation, two comrades sent by Du Ziyuan to investigate the cause of the disconnection of the Cam Ranh Bay communication line were anxiously waiting to report to him.

As soon as Du Ziyuan entered the conference room, before he sat down, he pointed at them and said, "Tell me, what's going on."

Reporting is very simple.The connection line of Cam Ranh Bay is human transportation, and there is no problem at all points from Beijing to here.The problem is after entering Vietnam.Five days ago, they sent a traffic officer to enter Vietnam secretly as usual, with the purpose of checking the traffic situation of the traffic line.But the trafficman has not come back so far.They are very disturbed by this, but they don't know what to do.

Du Ziyuan's face was serious, and he stared at the two people opposite him with cold eyes.He sat at the table for a long time without speaking.The expressions of the two people became more tense.They didn't complete the work assigned by Deputy Director Du himself, which was an unacceptable dereliction of duty.

Qin Donghai is also very serious, he knows that this trip is a big task.Although he doesn't know the details of the mission.

Long Jinyun was frightened by this scene.After graduating from university last year, she studied in the cadre training class of the investigation department for half a year and graduated with honors.This is the first time she has taken on an important task.She looked uneasily at the two comrades across from her, worried for them.

The atmosphere in the conference room became silent and uneasy.
